Gravity Group

The main area of research for the Victoria University Gravity Group (The Generic Gravity Group), is the interface between classical gravity and quantum physics.

This very broad topic is one aspect of a search for a theory of 'quantum gravity', or more precisely, a theory that in one limit approximately reproduces ordinary quantum physics and in another limit approximately reproduces classical Einstein gravity (general relativity).
